What’s the difference between Open Source and Datalab’s paid On-Prem options?

Our free open-source options (Chandra, Marker, and Surya) are ideal for research, personal use, and early-stage startups. Our paid on-prem options are for teams that need a commercial license to run our models and have one or multiple of the following requirements:
  • Require data privacy/operate in highly-regulated environments
  • Extremely high volume
  • Model training or customization
  • White-glove support and SLAs
Here’s a more detailed breakdown.
